Anyone have the same graph, but for video content makers? I'm aware YouTube cash is way down, but seeing this chart makes me realize I don't know what I don't know.
Hm, makes me wonder if that was the plan all along. I've heard nothing but good things about the housing act, which is decidedly uncharacteristic of our current government. Perhaps it is the hook they planned to use to get the voter suppression act to finally pass.
Always wondered about this. Glad to hear there's a crew out there doing cleanup. Nice job y'all.
This reminds me a bit too much of another engineering story. Worth the 5 minute read:
Institutional memory & reverse smuggling

At my first internship, they made me go through an entire bookshelf of safety training manuals that felt like they were written by the local staff. They were all full of things like "don't put a pipe on the end of a wrench to give you the leverage you need to do your job" and "don't forget to clock out at lunch or we'll have to assume you were gone for exactly one hour". Took me a moment to realize they were in fact telling me exactly what to do, but in a way that would also cover their asses. Always thought that was clever.
In total, probably 8-10 hours a week.
I work full time and live alone. So I lose 40+ hours on the front end, plus most nights & weekends doing all the chores that go along with being a functional adult. Recently, I also added working out into my routine, and that pretty much broke me. Yes, there's enough time to survive, but ya reach a point where you wonder WTF - how come I never have any fun anymore? I've now reached the point where I've had to force free time into the schedule. I now purposely fuck off Wednesday nights & Saturday mornings. Everything else is full. =(
Well, shit, there's 2 of us. I believe we're now contractually obligated to form mutually exclusive model railroading communities here. ;)
- Automobile repair
- Magic the Gathering
- Model trains
The gas stations around me are displacing fast food. If you need food for fast & cheap, you go to a gas station. I have a feeling this is intentional, they're trying to secure a new business model for when/if we stop using gasoline.
Related, you might enjoy the moving Born Rich. It's made by a rich kid & it's about what their life is like growing up. It's not a good movie, but it was interesting.
